1954 Gillet 175

Yesterday we went out to pick up this little  Belgian 2stroke project for Johan. The engine runs but didn't ride. After cleaning the carb, exhaust , ect... new throttle/clutch cable and some inspection , there was one clutch plate bend and the blocked the complete clutch. The plan was the build a complete new bike around the engine but it is complete original and has nice patina. I think we'll leave it this way....

 

I took the Trumpet Speedtwin out for a little ride. I lost a few things and need to tune the carb a bit.
